Overview of EP3SE260F1517C4N – Stratix® III E FPGA, 255,000 logic elements, 1517-FBGA

The EP3SE260F1517C4N is a Stratix® III E Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) provided in a 1517-BBGA / FCBGA package. It delivers a large programmable fabric with 255,000 logic elements and approximately 16.67 Mbits of embedded memory, alongside up to 976 user I/Os, targeted for commercial-grade electronic systems.

With a supply voltage range from 860 mV to 1.15 V and an operating temperature range of 0°C to 85°C, this device is suited for commercial applications that require high logic density, significant on‑chip RAM, and extensive I/O connectivity in a compact, surface-mount package.

Key Features

  • Core Logic Capacity — 255,000 logic elements provide substantial programmable logic resources for complex digital designs.
  • Embedded Memory — Approximately 16.67 Mbits of on-chip RAM to support buffers, FIFOs, and intermediate data storage without external memory.
  • I/O Count — Up to 976 user I/Os to support extensive peripheral and system interfacing requirements.
  • Power — Supported voltage supply range of 860 mV to 1.15 V for core power planning and system integration.
  • Package and Mounting — Available in a 1517-BBGA, FCBGA package (Supplier Device Package: 1517-FBGA, 40×40) for surface-mount PCB implementation.
  • Operating Range and Grade — Commercial grade with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 85°C, suitable for standard commercial environments.
  • Environmental Compliance — RoHS compliant to meet common lead-free assembly requirements.

Typical Applications

  • Commercial embedded systems — Use the device where high logic density and on-chip RAM are required to implement complex digital functions within commercial product temperature ranges.
  • High-density I/O platforms — Leverage up to 976 I/Os for systems needing broad connectivity to peripherals, sensors, or multi-channel interfaces.
  • Custom digital processing — Deploy the large logic element count and embedded memory to implement bespoke processing pipelines, data buffering, and control logic in commercial equipment.

Unique Advantages

  • High logic capacity: 255,000 logic elements enable implementation of large-scale FPGA designs without immediate reliance on external logic expansion.
  • Substantial on-chip memory: Approximately 16.67 Mbits of embedded RAM reduce external memory needs for many buffering and intermediate-storage tasks.
  • Extensive I/O availability: Up to 976 I/Os support complex interfacing requirements and simplify system-level connectivity.
  • Compact surface-mount package: 1517-BBGA / 1517-FBGA (40×40) package provides a high-density footprint suitable for space-constrained PCB designs.
  • Commercial-grade readiness: Rated for 0°C to 85°C operation, appropriate for standard commercial deployments and product lines.
  • RoHS compliant: Meets common environmental compliance expectations for modern electronic assembly processes.
